Child Safety

It Makes A Difference

Where Your TV Stands

Congratulations on your purchase! As you enjoy your new TV, keep these safety tips in mind:

The Issue

aIf you are like most consumers, you have a TV in your home. Many homes, in fact, have more than one TV.

aThe home theater entertainment experience is a growing trend, and larger TVs are popular purchases; however, they are not always supported on the proper TV stands.

aSometimes TVs are improperly secured or inappropriately situated on dressers, bookcases, shelves, desks, audio speakers, chests, or carts. As a result, TVs may fall over,

causing unnecessary injury.

Toshiba Cares!

aThe consumer electronics industry is committed to

making home entertainment enjoyable and safe.

aThe Consumer Electronics Association formed the Home Entertainment

Support Safety Committee, comprised of TV and consumer electronics furniture manufacturers, to advocate children’s safety and

educate consumers and their families about television safety.

Tune Into Safety

aOne size does NOT fit all! Use appropriate furniture large enough to support the weight of your TV (and other electronic components).

aUse appropriate angle braces, straps, and anchors to secure your furniture to the wall (but never screw anything directly into the TV).

aCarefully read and understand the other enclosed instructions for proper use of this product.

aDo not allow children to climb on or play with furniture and TVs.

aAvoid placing any item on top of your TV (such as a VCR, remote control, or toy) that a curious child may reach for.

aRemember that children can become excited while watching a program and can potentially push or pull a TV over.

aShare our safety message about this hidden hazard of the home with your family and friends. Thank you!
